Dispersal is the movement of animals from one place to another, which motivates locomotion. For example, migratory birds fly long distances to find suitable breeding grounds or food. Similarly, fish migrate to specific areas to spawn. These movements help animals survive, reproduce, and access resources, making dispersal a key force driving locomotion.
